This keyboard fits users who value switch flexibility, quiet typing, and multi-device use.

Key Features

Hot-swappable 3-pin/5-pin switch sockets allow changing switches without soldering, enabling easy customization of typing feel and sound.
Triple connectivity modes: wired USB Type-C, Bluetooth 5.0, and 2.4GHz wireless, supporting seamless switching between devices.

Build Quality and Typing Experience

Sandwich mount design facilitates case customization and modding.
Multiple layers of foam (EVA and IXPE) inside the case reduce hollow sounds and improve typing acoustics, resulting in a quieter, smoother typing experience.
Ajazz custom switches available in linear (AS Green, 45g actuation) and tactile (AS Blue, 50g actuation) options, suitable for users preferring light to moderate keypress force.

Connectivity

Wired mode via USB Type-C ensures stable connection for gaming or work requiring low latency.
Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4GHz wireless modes provide flexibility for multi-device setups and reduce cable clutter.
Easy switching among the three modes supports efficient multitasking across devices.

Compatibility

Compatible with Windows and macOS operating systems, including included Mac alternative keycaps.

Trade-offs

Battery capacity is 2500mAh, but actual wireless usage time is unknown.
RGB lighting customization is basic and may not satisfy users seeking advanced effects or software control.
Switch options are limited to Ajazz’s own AS Green and AS Blue, which may not suit users wanting popular third-party switches.
At 1.1kg, the keyboard is moderately heavy, which may affect portability.
